Human-created art begins with self-dialogue, with selfconsciousness in the widest sense, and ends with the communication of what we see of ourselves and others, and of what they see of themselves and of us. An artist’s self-dialogue is a constant adjusting, correcting, re-balancing, of elements within himself.

The In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion

Annual report 2012 Foreword

« The image of the v io la cou ld symbol ise the vo ice of cu l tures. I have an assembly in mind… but not of the bureaucrat ic k ind, rather made out of people who have a l ready proven the i r worth, dur ing miss ions, or representat ions, g iv ing a vo ice to groups, any group that can be recogn ised but whose vo ice is not , or not heard enough » .

Yehudi Menuh in

The miss ion of the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion is to perpetuate and d isseminate the ph i losophy and the humanist va lues of Yehudi Menuh in who exto l led the centra l p lace of ar t and creat iv i ty in a l l processes of in tegrat ion and personal and soc ieta l deve lopment .

For 2012, the work of the Foundat ion wi l l fo l low th is d i rect ion: the MUS-E® programme wi l l cont inue to encourage the soc ia l and cu l tura l in tegrat ion of ch i ldren f rom a l l cu l tures through the in t roduct ion of ar t is t ic act iv i t ies in the pr imary schools in Europe, and the « Vo ices for Tomorrow » programme wi l l deve lop and expand a European network of ar t is ts ca l led « ambassadors of cu l tures » who are the spokespersons of the va lues of the Foundat ion: shar ing, creat iv i ty , respect of cu l tura l d ivers i ty and transmiss ion.

The 2012 work programme is in l ine wi th the « Vo ices for Tomorrow » programme spann ing over severa l years and that focuses the art is t ic act ion of the Foundat ion on the themat ic of « Soc ia l In tegrat ion and Creat iv i ty » . I ts main ob ject ive is to capi ta l ise the ach ievements of the « Shar ing a l l Vo ices » ar t is t ic methodology, in i t ia ted in the f ramework of the 2008-2010 programme, based on an inter-d isc ip l inary approach, improv isat ion and intercu l tura l i ty and to strengthen the ro le of the ar t is ts in the i r miss ion of « ambassadors of the cu l tures of Europe » .

To ach ieve th is genera l ob ject ive the programme fo l lows three spec i f ic ob ject ives:

- ident i fy and tra in ambassadors of cu l tures who are sens i t ive to the soc ieta l cha l lenges so they can become the carr iers of the va lues defended by Yehudi Menuh in

- support the mul t i d isc ip l inary ar t is t ic act ions a iming at soc ia l in tegrat ion through the pract ice of ar t , by re inforc ing the work of pro ject leaders in European schools members of the European network of the Foundat ion whi ls t at the same t ime widen ing th is network to other countr ies and reg ions of Europe.

- encourage art is t ic creat iv i ty , in tercu l tura l d ia logue and the mobi l i ty of ar t is ts l iv ing in Europe, on the top ic of soc ia l in tegrat ion and creat iv i ty .

In th is f ramework, the 2012 programme, was dedicated to the deepen ing of the t ra in ing of the ambassadors of cu l tures of Europe and to the d isseminat ion of the va lues they have to t ransmi t .

Dur ing our tour in seven countr ies of the European Union, we have ra l l ied to our cause art is ts who share our same v is ion and who have c lose ly co l laborated in our act ions: as in the case of Ida Kelarova, a Roma s inger f rom the Czech Republ ic , who in her extraord inary work to l iberate the vo ice took us to Roma ghet tos in Western S lovak ia . Or a lso wi th Dani K le in , who lent her magni f icent vo ice to our 20th ann iversary Gala, her presence h igh l ighted a co lour fu l and mul t icu l tura l even ing. The same can be sa id about Vo lker B iesenbender, whose v io l in i l lust rated a new musica l creat ion accompanied by the innovat ive danc ing of Cr is t ina Candela .

Thanks to the « Vo ices for Tomorrow » programme the Foundat ion reached new audiences, ident i f ied new partners to deve lop common act ions in 2012, was jo ined by art is ts shar ing the same va lues, reached out to Roma ch i ldren and art is ts and conveyed the i r hopes. I t a l lowed us to ident i fy potent ia l new partners to set up the foundat ions of the MUS-E programme in new countr ies, as for example in S lovak ia and in Austr ia . I t a lso enabled us to conso l idate the bas is of a programme a iming the re- launch of the Assembly of Cul tures of Europe so dear to Yehudi Menuh in .

The work th is year was of course undertaken thanks to the support of our st ructura l partners, who, even in th is cr i t ica l f inanc ia l c l imate, supported our ef for ts fa i thfu l ly . Our thanks go a lso to the European Commiss ion; the i r recogn i t ion of the qual i ty of our work honours us and encourages us to deve lop ever more pro jects h igh l ight ing d ia logue and cu l tura l d ivers i ty .

1 . The International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation

Yehudi Menuh in, one of the greatest v io l in is ts of the 20th century, created the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion in Brusse ls in 1991 as an internat iona l non prof i t making assoc iat ion set up by roya l decree.

H is v is ion was to g ive l i fe to long term pro jects, wi th the a im of g iv ing a vo ice to the vo ice less through art is t ic express ions under a l l i ts forms. The In ternat iona l Foundat ion is at the centre and coord inates a network of assoc iat ions which act as the nat iona l operators of i ts programmes, such as for example MUS-E®.

The task the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion undertakes is to remind the po l i t ica l , cu l tura l and educat iona l inst i tu t ions of the centra l p lace of ar t and creat iv i ty in a l l the processes of personal and soc ieta l deve lopment . F ind ing i ts sources in the humanist ic work of Yehudi Menuh in, i t in i t ia tes ar t is t ic pro jects that g ive a vo ice to the cu l tures present in Europe.

Th is endeavour is rea l ised in severa l f ie lds of act ion, supported by d i f ferent programmes:

• ar t at school : the MUS-E® programme int roduces art in pr imary schools to deve lop ch i ldren ’s creat ive powers and re lease the i r creat ive potent ia l , thus prevent ing v io lence and rac ism through foster ing harmony and a sense of aesthet ics f rom the ear l iest age. Implemented in 11 countr ies, MUS-E® now invo lves around 45,000 ch i ldren f rom 523 pr imary schools, thanks to the support f rom the European Union and many nat iona l and reg iona l governmenta l author i t ies and partners . Over 700 ar t is ts take part in the programme. Lord Menuh in ’s wish was that a l l ch i ldren cou ld s ing and dance at school every morn ing.

• ar t and intercu l tura l d ia logue: g ives a vo ice to none represented cu l tura l groups by creat ing a p lat form through which these groups can express themselves at a European leve l .

Over th i r ty groups have jo ined th is pro ject in Europe, inc lud ing the Roma, Armenians, Laps, Csangos, Pomacks, etc . but a lso emerg ing minor i t ies . Today new partnersh ips are estab l ished wi th cu l tura l experts, minor i ty advocacy groups, ar t is ts , d iverse assoc iat ions or inst i tu t ions in the i r f ie ld of act ion (educat ion, soc ia l , env i ronment ) which combine the i r act iv i t ies and generate a thorough ref lect ion in the p lat form created around the Assembly of Cul tures. Lord Menuh in ’s wish was that a l l cu l tura l groups cou ld have rea l access to European author i t ies and that European inst i tu t ions cou ld g ive a l l cu l tura l groups the pract ica l opportun i ty of express ing themselves.

• ar t on stage: themat ic mul t icu l tura l concerts un i te the vo ices of severa l cu l tures through mus ic, s ing ing or dance. A longs ide Stéphane Grappel l i , Rav i Shankar, Marce l Marceau or Mir iam Makeba, to ment ion but a few, Yehudi Menuh in used to in t roduce us on stage to the sou l of a range of cu l tures through the i r mus ica l express ion. He knew how to f ind the words of the heart , creat ing a magic space wi th in which we were a l l un i ted. I t is th is sp i r i t that the In ternat iona l Foundat ion str ives to perpetuate today by organ is ing an annual concert or ar t is t ic event i l lust rat ing in tercu l tura l d ia logue on stage. These mul t icu l tura l events of the IYMF carry a strong message based on to lerance and understand ing, which is a lso anchored in a wider ref lect ion on in tercu l tura l d ia logue. They propose a dynamic and nove l i l lust rat ion

of the message of in tegrat ion through art and propose d idact ic too ls which art is ts , experts or teachers work ing in the schools in Europe can make the i r own.

The art is t ic performances and part ic ipat ive workshops a l lowed us to fo l low a new approach: meet ing var ious and part ic ipat ive audiences.

The outcome th is h igh l ights is a co l lect ive creat ion generated by severa l ar t is ts gathered for the f i rs t t ime in the f ramework of the IYMF.

• ar t in res idence: the in ternat iona l res ident ia l workshops organ ised by the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion gather ar t is ts f rom d iverse cu l tures encourag ing the exchange of knowledge and good pract ices dur ing res idences a l lowing the i r creat iv i ty to f lour ish and favour ing the emergence of co l lect ive creat ions.

These creat ive laborator ies are at the base of future work of the ar t is ts “ambassadors” of the MUS-E® network and the partners .

• ar t for Europe: for many years the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion is a successfu l part ic ipant to European pro jects as team leader . Th is was the case for “Contes Nomades” , “MUS-E® Connect” , “Enfants d ’ Ic i , Contes d ’A i l leurs” , “D iasporas and European Ci t izensh ip” , “ iyouwe SHARE THE WORLD” in 2008 for the European Year of In tercu l tura l D ia logue, and more recent ly the Ambassadors programme.

2 . The MUS-E® programmeThe purpose of the MUS-E® programme is the soc ia l and cu l tura l in tegrat ion of ch i ldren through int roduc ing art is t ic act iv i t ies, mus ic, drama, dance and p last ic ar ts in pr imary schools in Europe. MUS-E® thus contr ibutes to the prevent ion of v io lence, rac ism and soc ia l exc lus ion by prov id ing an open ing to var ious cu l tures and awakening the creat ive potent ia l of each ch i ld .

A. HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF MUS-E®

The MUS-E® programme was thought out in 1993 by the outstand ing v io l in is t and humanist Yehudi Menuh in (1916-1999) and took on pract ica l shape thanks to the ef for ts of Werner Schmi t t , head of the mus ic school of the Bern Conservato i re, and Mar ianne Ponce let , Execut ive V ice-Pres ident of the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion.

MUS-E® is insp i red by the educat iona l mus ica l concept deve loped by Zol tán Kodály (1882-1967) , a Hungar ian composer, ethnomusico log is t and teacher . H is concept , c i rcu lated throughout Hungary, was that mus ic shou ld be part of da i ly educat ion and be access ib le to everyone. Zo l tán Kodály defended the idea that each country shou ld know i ts own trad i t iona l cu l ture . Yehudi Menuh in extended Kodály ’s concept by adapt ing i t to the current rea l i t ies of mul t icu l tura l ism. Whi le agree ing wi th Kodály about the importance of s ing ing, he a lso ins is ted on the importance of movement, the var ious senses, the body and the imaginary wor ld in the pract ice of ar t f rom d i f ferent cu l tures.

B. FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE MUS-E® PROGRAMME

Yehudi Menuh in out l ined the strong po ints as fo l lows:

• Art makes a dec is ive contr ibut ion to the in te l lectua l , aesthet ic and soc ia l deve lopment of a person.

• Art develops the personal abi l i ty to overcome diff icult ies and transcend them, drawing addit ional strengths from them.

• The pract ice of ar t is a source of access to knowledge; rooted in exper ience, i t boosts the p leasure of d iscovery, cur iosi ty, interest and access to other types of knowledge.

• Ar t in genera l , and s ing ing and danc ing in part icu lar , reconnects the body wi th the sp i r i t and the sp i r i t wi th the body, whi le reconnect ing emot ions wi th the mind and the mind wi th emot ions.

• Ar t is t ic express ion generates new re lat ionsh ips wi th ourse lves and the outs ide wor ld .

• D iscover ing t rad i t ions f rom the i r reg ion of or ig in he lps ch i ldren red iscover the i r own cu l tura l her i tage, somet imes forgot ten in migratory s i tuat ions.

• Ar t creates l inks between an ind iv idua l and d i f ferent cu l tures. Art is t ic creat ion contr ibutes to shaping a common cu l ture and re inforces the fee l ing of be long ing.

• Art is a tool for developing self-respect and respect for others.

• Ar t can contr ibute to the deve lopment of soc ia l dynamics based on interdependence.

• Ar t and school can mutua l ly enr ich one another .

• Through cu l ture and art , we can str ive for a greater qua l i ty of l i fe .

C. F IELDS OF ACTION OF THE MUS-E® PRO-GRAMME

MUS-E® estab l ishes connect ions between three f ie lds: the ar t is t ic , educat iona l and soc ia l f ie lds .

• The soc ia l f ie ld : the MUS-E® programme pr imar i ly focuses on ch i ldren who may be at r isk of soc ia l exc lus ion. Targeted schools are most ly located in areas where var ious cu l tures coex is t , wi th d i f f icu l t ies l inked to cu l tura l mutat ions, and where ch i ldren have no access to ar t is t ic educat ion. We bank on these so- ca l led “d i f f icu l t ” schools hav ing a weal th of potent ia l and r iches which can be enhanced by deve lop ing su i tab le pro jects . The MUS-E® programme he lps br ing out ch i ldren ’s many qual i t ies and resources as wel l as the r ichness of the i r cu l tura l d ivers i ty , thus counter ing soc ia l st igma. Research has shown that the parents l iv ing in poor areas had a negat ive percept ion of school . The product ions of the i r ch i ldren outs ide the school change th is percept ion and he lp them become invo lved in the school env i ronment .

• The educat iona l f ie ld : an art is t ic approach complements the educat ion prov ided in th is type of school , which resu l ts in ch i ldren increas ing ly regard ing school as a gateway to knowledge and the deve lopment of soc ia l sk i l l s . I t a lso he lps teachers d iscover a d i f ferent k ind of educat iona l system, s ince pr ior i ty is g iven to an approach tak ing in to account ch i ldren ’s favour i te sub jects and act iv i t ies, the i r ab i l i t ies, the i r leve l of deve lopment and the i r cu l tura l d ivers i ty . The educat iona l approach of the MUS-E® programme is based on the assumpt ion that ch i ldren a l ready have the i r own k ind of knowledge and cu l ture and that enhanc ing these factors g ives fu l l meaning to school as a p lace for deve lop ing soc ia l sk i l l s . The art is t / teacher partnersh ip wi th in MUS-E he lps teachers not to exper ience the i r ro le and be exper ienced as the one and on ly ho lders of knowledge, but as people accompanying ch i ldren in the i r search for knowledge. When deal ing wi th some parts of the school curr icu lum, teachers can a lso use as a bas is what has been exper ienced by ch i ldren dur ing MUS-E® act iv i t ies .

• The art is t ic f ie ld : ar t , which is of ten min imized in the school curr icu lum or in pract ice, is a powerfu l too l for arous ing the th i rs t for knowledge, the knowledge of others and the i r cu l ture, and co l lect ive work. Awakening ch i ldren ’s creat ive potent ia l deve lops the i r capaci t ies for res i l ience, in other words the i r capaci t ies for overcoming the prob lems l inked to d i f f icu l t l i v ing condi t ions.

E . OPERATION OF MUS-E® AT THE EUROPEAN AND INTERNATIONAL LEVEL

The MUS-E® programme is implemented at the loca l and nat iona l leve l through assoc iat ions or nat iona l foundat ions which are l inked to the IYMF through a renewable convent ion. Th is convent ion spec i f ies the implementat ion cr i ter ia of the programme, the qual i ty and respect of the sp i r i t of cooperat ion and open ing of the network operated by the IYMF and supported by the d i f ferent st ructures. They are a lso bound to submi t year ly a report of the i r act iv i t ies and the management of the programme at the nat iona l leve l .

The ro le of the IYMF is to lega l ly protect the MUS-E® name, to coord inate and deve lop the synerg ies between the d i f ferent nat iona l st ructures. I t a lso launches the bases of a deve lopment strategy in respect of terr i tory and partnersh ips. MUS-E® is thus more and more represented by assoc iat ions or p lat forms which are a l ready act ive in the school or ar t is t ic wor ld . And so the network expands and becomes r icher through wider exper iences, becoming at the same t ime a force to be reckoned wi th in the f ie ld and in the educat iona l po l ic ies of the d i f ferent countr ies .

The IYMF equal ly deve lops i ts ro le of fundra iser for the MUS-E® network scrut in is ing and fo l lowing the proposals of

potent ia l benefactors submi t ted by the nat iona l st ructures, propos ing European pro jects or deve lop ing re lat ions wi th var ious foundat ions.

Fur thermore, to ensure the coherence and the shar ing of exper iences, the nat iona l coord inators meet in an In ternat iona l Coord inators Commit tee ( ICC) . The fundamenta l ob ject ive of the ICC, set up wi th in the In ternat iona l Foundat ion, is to br ing together MUS-E coord inators in order for them to share the i r exper iences and know-how and enr ich on-f ie ld pract ices.

Ensur ing that the ref lect ions on the eva luat ion of the programme are implemented by the nat iona l st ructures ( ref lect ion commit tee in Germany, in Be lg ium for example or in France a lso where the pro ject expanded to three fur ther towns (Lyon, Par is and L i l le ) thanks to the support of Be iersdorf AG and the Fondat ion de l ’Oranger ie . The IYMF for i ts part gathers the d i f ferent main l ines of ref lect ion on eva luat ion, communicat ion and the pool ing of the pro jects at the European leve l .

F. THE MUS-E® NETWORK AND THE MUS-E® INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE

2012 saw an overa l l increase in the f igures of the network, ( refer to the MUS-E® tab le of schools, ar t is ts and c lasses) . The Coord inators meet ing that took p lace in 2012 focused on eva luat ion, communicat ion, ident i f icat ion and implementat ion of « common pro jects » at the European as wel l as at the in ternat iona l leve l ( inc lud ing Israe l ) .

The main issue for the partners of MUS-E®, in addi t ion to the fo l low up and mainta in ing the qual i ty of work at the loca l leve l , is the in ternat iona l expans ion of the network. A cho ice of opt ions must be taken in order to ensure a deve lopment which matches the f inanc ia l means of the Foundat ion.

Therefore the Board of the Foundat ion dec ided to go on wi th the Deve lopment Commit tee, that wi l l centra l ise the

G. EVALUATION

Each nat iona l assoc iat ion/foundat ion that implements the MUS-E® programme has i ts own eva luat ion which compl ies wi th the demands of the d i f ferent grant g ivers and the cr i ter ia of the d i f ferent educat ion systems. The IYMF for i ts part co l lects these pract ices and pools the d i f ferent formats of eva luat ion in a resource- in t ranet that may serve as examples for the coord inators . On the other hand, wi th i ts in ternat iona l workshops, the IYMF can a lso acqu i re a bet ter understand ing of the good pract ices the art is ts implement and l ink the MUS-E® pract ices of the d i f ferent countr ies . European pro jects are a lso an important way to confront the cha l lenges encountered in the network in the implementat ion of the ar t is t ic pract ices in schools and propose in common new so lut ions or exp lorat ions.

3 . The assembly of cultures of Europe and the Ambassadors programme

The Assembly of Cul tures of Europe (ACE), a pro ject dear to the heart of Yehudi Menuh in, is coming to l i fe again in the shape of in ternat iona l themat ic encounters br ing ing together experts f rom var ious minor i ty groups in Europe.

A. HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF ACE

As the idea promoted by Yehudi Menuh in was that a l l the cu l tures present in Europe become an integra l and c i t izen part of th is Europe, they a lso had to represent at the i r own leve l th is European d imens ion, invest i t wi th the i r own art is t ic and cu l tura l gen ius . In order to represent and h igh l ight th is creat ive d ivers i ty , the ACE was const i tu ted as a p lat form of debates, contacts, understand ing and open ing on the cha l lenges fac ing the wor ld .

Wi th th is in mind we organ ised in 2005 a symposium in Barce lona on Diasporas and European Ci t izensh ip . Over the last year, the In ternat iona l Foundat ion gathered numerous experts and art is ts stemming from European cu l tura l groups who can be invo lved in f ie ld act ions such as those undertaken by the MUS-E® programme.

The experts involved at the t ime wished to resume their discussions and enhance them with the IYMF through an informal network. These meetings inspired the International Yehudi Menuhin Foundation in the creation of a three year programme: «SHARING ALL VOICES » aiming to explore new paths of art ist ic creation in col laboration with the European partners who shared this desire and curiosity and wished to contribute their expert ise and know-how to our approach.

The particularity of this approach is the highl ighted role of the art ists, be it social, innovative, pedagogic, inspir ing. They are the « ambassadors » at the heart of the IYMF’s mission.

Th is is how we in i t ia ted in 2008 the f i rs t stage of our programme «Shar ing a l l Vo ices» which lasted unt i l 2010 and we cont inued wi th the «Vo ices For Tomorrow» programme which star ted in 2012.

B. THE SHARING ALL VOICES PROGRAMME

I n th is programme, the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion shares the vo ices of ar t is ts , mus ic, cu l tures and nature through the t ra in ing of ambassadors of cu l tures who can express themselves creat ive ly on stage, in part ic ipat ive workshops and shar ing moments . To he lp i t in th is task, the Foundat ion ca l ls upon experts of these cu l tures, prepares mater ia l to t ranspose i ts messages into images, communicates them dur ing publ ic performance in var ious parts of Europe, tak ing in to account the symbol ic i t inerar ies l inked to i ts set of themes.

In 2008, MOVING VOICES, the set of themes chosen were nomadic cu l tures: what are the i r spec i f ic i t ies, how do they t ransform and adapt in re lat ion to the countr ies and other cu l tures they encounter and cross? What are the i r contr ibut ions to the European cu l ture? And how can art is ts t rans late the messages of wisdom of these cu l tures in the i r own art is t ic and transmiss ib le language making of them the ambassadors of the va lues person i f ied by these cu l tures « in movement»?

I n 2009, GREEN VOICES, the set of themes chosen were cu l tures and env i ronment : how are art is ts l inked to nature, what is the s ign i f icance of th is l ink, why are the e lements of nature a source of insp i rat ion to ar t is ts , how can the art is ts increase awareness of the importance of respect ing nature in th is context?

In 2010, ISLAND VOICES, focused on the concept of the is lands as a metaphor of the is le ts of res is tance towards a system that l im i ts the deve lopment of be ing and creat iv i ty . The term « Is lands» refers here to the art is ts – ambassadors of the pro ject who move in smal l groups and in d i f ferent contexts in order to t ransmi t and share in a pract ica l manner the advances of the pro ject .

C. THE VOICES FOR TOMORROW PROGRAMME

The ob ject ive is to deve lop and expand a European network of ar t is ts ca l led «ar t is ts ambassadors of cu l tures» who are the spokespersons of the va lues of shar ing and respect of the Foundat ion and whose miss ion is to t ransmi t the ar t is t ic methodolog ies promot ing in tegrat ion and creat iv i ty .

The 2012 work programme is in l ine wi th the «Vo ices for Tomorrow» programme spann ing over severa l years and that focuses the art is t ic act ion of the Foundat ion on the themat ic of «Soc ia l In tegrat ion and Creat iv i ty» .

I ts main ob ject ive is to capi ta l ise the ach ievements of the «Shar ing a l l Vo ices» ar t is t ic methodology, in i t ia ted in the f ramework of the 2008-2010 programme, based on an inter-d isc ip l inary approach, improv isat ion and intercu l tura l i ty and to strengthen the ro le of the ar t is ts in the i r miss ion of «ambassadors of the cu l tures of Europe», in order to g ive a VOICE to the cu l tures of Europe and encourage the in tegrat ion of vu lnerab le groups, through the pract ice of ar t .

To ach ieve th is genera l ob ject ive the programme fo l lows three spec i f ic ob ject ives:

1 . ident i fy and tra in ambassadors of cu l tures who are sens i t ive to the soc ieta l cha l lenges so they can

become the carr iers of the va lues defended by Yehudi Menuh in .

2. support the mul t i d isc ip l inary ar t is t ic act ions a iming at soc ia l in tegrat ion through the pract ice of ar t , by re inforc ing the work of pro ject leaders in European school members of the European network of the Foundat ion whi ls t at the same t ime widen ing th is network to other countr ies and reg ions of Europe.

3. encourage art is t ic creat iv i ty , in tercu l tura l d ia logue and the mobi l i ty of ar t is ts l iv ing in Europe, on the top ic of soc ia l in tegrat ion and creat iv i ty .

In th is f ramework, the 2012 programme, was dedicated to the deepen ing of the t ra in ing of the ambassadors of cu l tures of Europe and to the d isseminat ion of the va lues they have to t ransmi t .

D. THE METHOD

The art is t ic methodology of the Shar ing A l l Vo ices (SAV) pro ject is based on the pr inc ip le of the «f lu id organ ic dec is ion making» in i t ia ted by Th ierry Van Roy in the f ramework of the Shar ing A l l Vo ices pro ject of the In ternat iona l Yehudi Menuh in Foundat ion ( IYMF) .

The a im of th is method is to decompartmenta l ize, open, widen the creat ive ab i l i t ies through creat ive work in group, by respect ing a few spec i f ic ru les that i t enta i ls . Th is methodology is , in the case of Shar ing A l l Vo ices, def ined as a powerfu l too l to deve lop in the members of the group the humanist va lues of Yehudi Menuh in, notab ly respect , non v io lence and fu l f i lment of the ind iv idua l through art is t ic creat ion, research of a harmony wi th onese l f and the d ivers i ty of the wor ld .

Th is method is in tended for ar t is ts and people wish ing to work on the creat ive impulse regard less of the f ie ld of appl icat ion of the i r creat iv i ty .

In pract ice, the group, through a pre l im inary work sess ion, becomes an organ ic ent i ty , wi th i ts own inte l l igence, dynamism and creat iv i ty in addi t ion to i ts ind iv idua l creat iv i ty . I t can be compared to a shoal of f ish that fo l lows a group log ic that is i ts own and not that of separated ind iv idua ls .

Through the pr inc ip le of «organ ic dec is ion making», the creat ion in group is a lways conducted by one of the part ic ipants of the group, and th is leadersh ip is estab l ished in an organ ic and f lu id manner for a very short whi le or for a longer exper imentat ion, accord ing to the creat ive responses of the other members: the one who gave the creat ive impulse at a certa in t ime conducts the group, and he or she wi l l immediate ly re l inqu ish the dec is ion making to another member in a f lu id manner, a lways keeping in mind that the ind iv idua l must g ive precedence to the group.

The re lat ionsh ips obey spec i f ic ru les:

1 . mutua l t rust : the respons ib i l i ty towards the group and i ts process of creat ion.

2. non- judgement : noth ing is e i ther good or bad, one obeys to creat ive impulses in a pr imord ia l way, not tak ing in to account ind iv idua l op in ions.

3. non-verba l communicat ion: no space for po lemics, one exper iments in order to dec ide; one works on etherea l , corpora l , sensory communicat ion.

4. put t ing onese l f in jeopardy , in the creat ive f ie ld : a requ is i te , i t widens the hor izon of one own creat iv i ty .

5 . impermanence: creat ion is never f rozen: the method is in keeping wi th the f lu id i ty of t ime and form, and wi th the idea that a work of ar t can indef in i te ly be worked on. I t is not the outcome that is important , but the creat ive process, which in the course of t ime becomes a process of personal t ransformat ion.

6. non-production: the creation process starts, ideally, out of nothing and without a determined final aim if not that to create something following the logic of the «group» entity.

7 . One can have some «snapshots» (per formances, shar ing moments) , but i t remains a never-end ing «work in progress» .

8. adaptab i l i ty : the creat ion of the group adapts i tse l f in an f lu id and immediate way to changes and unforeseen events: composi t ion of the group, externa l or in terna l e lement or event .

There is a «watchman» on the outsk i r ts of the group, h is cruc ia l ro le is on ly to ensure that the ru les of «organ ic dec is ion making» are respected and guarantee the creat ion through the f lu id i ty of the power of dec is ion making.

In due course, this methodology, experimented upon in the microcosm of artists, creative people and children, will become a tool for the macrocosm that is to say at the service of human groups in society looking for societal answers through creativity.

E . THE AMBASSADOR ARTISTS

The Ambassador Art ists are the spokespersons of the values embodied by Yehudi Menuhin and promoted by his Foundat ion: creat iv i ty, integrat ion, shar ing, respect of diversi ty, transmission. And also: trust, complementar i t ies, reciprocity, l istening, chal lenging dissonance, creat ive mixes, the encounter as the f i rst step to creat ing, interdependence, openness, respect of the body and of l i fe, mult ip l icat ion in diversi ty, going towards the foreigner with empathy and respect, search for the why of th ings, search for harmony with oneself and the diversi ty of the world.

They transmi t these va lues through an art is t ic metho-do logy based on the pr inc ip le of a f lu id organ ic dec is ion making deve loped by Th ierry Van Roy and based on var ious pr inc ip les: mutua l t rust , non- judgment, non-verba l communicat ion, put t ing onese l f in jeopardy, impermanence, non-product ion, adaptab i l i ty .

The ob ject ive pursued is to promote the emergence of creat iv i ty and encourage the in tegrat ion of vu lnerab le target groups through the pract ice of ar t .

The very sp i r i t of the i r approach is based on the pr inc ip les of in tercu l tura l d ia logue: l is ten ing to onese l f and others, rec iproca l enr ichment and the negot iat ion of a pac i f ic and creat ive way of l i v ing together .

VIP Guests

Dani Klein(s inger )

Be lg ium

The story began two decades ago with a voice – Dani Klein’s voice, the voice of Vaya Con Dios. A voice heard at its most extraordinary on The Ult imate Collection. A col lection of 21 songs: 18 hits, two sparkl ing new numbers and, as a finale, a reinterpretation with a soul legend of a much-loved Klein classic. Twenty-one songs to mark 20 years at the top.

Vaya Con Dios wasn’t the f irst introduction to Dani Klein. Back in the mid-Eighties, you could hear her singing on commercials, in bars, on stage, as the vocal ist for indie heroes Arbeid Adelt. But she didn’t take her place in the spotl ight unti l she formed Vaya with bassist Dirk Schoufs and guitarist Wil ly Lambregt. There was no five-year plan. Just the maverick urge of three musical magpies to riff on the sounds they loved – and to see what happened when you mixed rock with Latin rhythms or blues or f lamenco or chanson or…

Vaya soared into the stratosphere. No surprise there. In the Eighties, ‘mainstream’ mainly meant ‘soulless’. Singles like Just a Friend of Mine, Puerto Rico, Johnny and Don’t Cry for Louie were like lifebelts to those longing for music of colour and passion and flair and heart and, of course, soul. If the music made people do a double take, so did the first time they saw Dani on TV. Her voice sounded like it belonged to a Delta blues woman or a Detroit diva. Not a down-to-earth woman from Brussels.

By now, that down-to-earth woman from Brusse ls was a b ig name around the wor ld . Vaya were se l l ing mi l l ions, sca l ing d izzy he ights wi th the 1990 a lbum Night Owls and smash h i ts l ike Nah Neh Nah and What ’s a Woman? But a l l was not wel l beh ind the scenes. The group star ted implod ing under the pressures of fame. Wi l ly had a l ready left ; Dirk and Dani spl i t up. A year after Dirk suddenly died.

Devastated, Dani didn’t drop Vaya but went on as a one-woman-show. The melanchol ic Time Fl ies and velvety Roots & Wings albums fol lowed (represented on the new Vaya compi lat ion by t imeless numbers l ike Heading For A Fal l , Forever Blue, Stay with Me and Don’t Break My Heart) . But by the mid-Ninet ies Dani fe l t smothered by the l imel ight .

Exhausted, she stepped out of that hothouse. Shunned i t . Dec ided to f ind herse l f .

Over the next few years she devoted herse l f to making up for lost t ime wi th f r iends and fami ly she’d bare ly seen for a decade. She trave l led the wor ld, f ina l ly v is i t ing the p laces she’d on ly managed to g l impse on tour . She bought a house in Andalus ia . She stud ied psychoanalys is , ph i losophy and l i terature, even go ing to un ivers i ty .

Eventua l ly the ache to create mus ic returned. In 1999

Dani and four mus ic ian pa ls began jamming together and recorded the resu l ts as Purp le Prose, an a lbum of qu iet , low-key beauty. F ive years later , once again as Vaya Con Dios, she made The Promise, a l l summery love l iness, espec ia l ly the g lor ious Je l ’a ime, Je l ’a ime and Don’ t Deny. I t ’s the work of an art is t at the peak of her creat ive powers – as are two new tracks on The Ul t imate Col lect ion. On Pauvre Diab le Dani puts her own sp in on reggaeton megastar Don Omar ’s h i t ‘Pobre Diab la ’ ; Some L ike i t Hot just rocks.

On top of that , Dan i duets wi th US sou l veteran Aaron Nev i l le on an aston ish ing re-make of What ’s A Woman? There ’s a lso a t remendous DVD of an acoust ic concert that Dani performed in Brusse ls in August 2006 – Vaya unplugged, i f you l ike – a Wor ld Premiere performance. A l l in a l l , The Ul t imate Col lect ion t races the story of one of Be lg ium’s b iggest ever acts and the i r adventures in mus ic, a l l the way from ‘back when’ to here and now.

RESPECT

Our Soc iety - Mus ic Shou ld not be an Escape - Admirat ion and Compass ion for Others“… The abuse of authority, the exploitation and the persecution of human beings more sensitive and often more worthwhile than the offending exploiter or persecutor, whether operating in physical proximity or, as increasingly possible, at remote control – these aberrations, today considered normal and even “justified” by exigencies termed “economic” or “nationalistic”, these conditions which obtain in the lowest and the highest levels of society in men’s minds and hearts, are abhorrent to me. …”
